() 1. —When will Jim's birthday party begin?
—It will start ______ eight o'clock ______ the evening of November 18th.

A.at；on
B.at；in
C.on；in
D./；on

A

首先，我们来看第一个空格。在英语中，表示具体的时间点，如几点钟，我们通常使用介词"at"。因此，对于"eight o'clock"，我们应该使用"at"。接下来，我们看第二个空格。题目中给出了具体的日期"the evening of November 18th"，在英语中，当我们谈论具体的某一天或日期时，我们通常使用介词"on"。因此，对于这个空格，我们应该使用"on"。综合以上分析，我们可以确定答案为A选项，即"at；on"。

() 2. —Hurry up! We have ______ time left.
—Don't worry. We still have ______ minutes.

A.little；a few
B.a little；a few
C.a little；few
D.little；few

A

首先分析两个空应填内容的区别。第一空后为不可数名词time，little和a little都用于修饰不可数名词，little表示“几乎没有”，a little表示“有一点”；第二空后为可数名词复数minutes，a few和few用于修饰可数名词，a few表示“有几个”，few表示“几乎没有”。根据对话情境，“Hurry up!”表明说话者认为时间紧迫，即“几乎没有时间了”，所以第一空用little；而回答“Don't worry.”说明还有时间，即“还有几分钟”，所以第二空用a few。

() 3. ______ can help us learn ______ about the world.
A.Reading；a lot of
B.Reading；a lot
C.Read；lots of
D.Read；a lot

B

首先分析句子结构，句子中缺少主语，而动词原形不能作主语，动词ing形式可以作主语，所以第一个空应该用Reading；其次，a lot of和lots of都表示“许多”，后面需要接名词；a lot可以作副词短语，修饰动词，表示“很多，非常”，在这里a lot修饰动词learn，表示学到很多。所以第二个空应该用a lot。

() 4. —What's in your ______ hand?
—Just a pen. Nothing ______.
A.another；else
B.other；else
C.else；other
D.other；other

B

首先分析句子结构，"in your ______ hand"中需要一个形容词来修饰"hand"，表示“你的另一只手”，而"another"通常用于三者或三者以上的情况，表示“另一个”，不符合语境，所以应选择"other"，表示“另外的”。接着，"Nothing ______"中需要一个形容词来修饰不定代词"nothing"，在英语中常用"else"来修饰不定代词，表示“其他的”。而"other"通常不用于修饰不定代词。因此，第一个空应填"other"，第二个空应填"else"。

() 5. When I grow up, I hope ______ a doctor like my father.
A.to be
B.I be
C.me to be
D.I am

A

hope后接动词不定式，构成hope to do sth.结构，意为“希望做某事”。选项A "to be" 符合该结构；选项B "I be" 语法错误，hope后接宾语从句时，若主语为I，be动词应用am；选项C "me to be" 错误，hope无hope sb. to do sth.用法；选项D "I am" 时态不当，此处表示将来的愿望，应用will be或to be。
